FM: No one attending Josipović inauguration

Why didn't you do the same for the dinner organised by Obama???


Or when it is about Croatia, Italy they are not so important so you stage your pathetic show...

with Americans you become immediately good boys...

hypocrites
P.S. you didn't boycott neither the Brussels meeting for the south east Europe where Kosova was invited in the highest rank... it would be nice that the press starts highlighting these double standards of the Serbian Gov

Well no one stopped Serbia for being present in Croatia. Kosova officially is a state now, so there is not reason not to invite neighbour countries on such events. By the way Happy 2nd anniversary Birthday KOSOVA!

"God forbid, the recognition of Kosovo,” Jeremić said. "

lol, you Byzantine leftover,

Serb priest are constantly acting as politicians, and politicians acting as priests.
way to go

Few weeks ago, Serbian delegation left another meeting in Italy because of the presence of Kosovo delegation.
Serbian official should start getting used to this or they will became laughing stock. No country will organise separate meeting only for Serbian delegation.

ha ha ha this guy iS funny.they like to joing the EU but most of EU countries recognise kosovo as a state.

Well Done Belgrade! Now kick out the US ambassador and all those others that have recognized this abomination called "Kosova".

I just thought of a funny hypothetical scenario.
- There is the inauguration of the new Serbian President scheduled.
- All neighbouring states are invited (of course -- Kosovo included).
- The new Serbian president does not attend his own inauguration because Kosovo delegation will be present.
I know, far fetched but funny?

Things do not go always your way mate. Do not try to blame the others for your childish strops. This was the most naive decission that Serbia has ever taken and believe you me they have done a lot of them lately.

Probably in the near future there will be plenty of occasions like this one where Kosovo leaders will be invited and expecially in EU where Serbia is so eager to be invited so for our beloved Boris and Vuk many tough decisions to be made....i go or i remain home...maybe will be the weather to decide...

Belgrade made the right decision. Understanding fully the consequences of their choice, Zagreb thought it more important to invite the so-called president of a partially recognised, disputed dependency over the legitimate president of all Serbia. Josipovic then had the brass neck to say that he extended the hand of friendship to Belgrade and that it was rejected. Does Zagreb really think that Tadic would go to the inauguration and sit beside a Kosovo Albanian pretending to be the head of state of part of his country? If Croatia wants better relations with Serbia then they should show some respect and tact. The ball is well and truly in their court.

Here we have another childish act of serb leaders who are getting more and more isolated. There is nothing wrong with attending a meeting where a kosovo official is. This is a complete joke from serbian officials.
But anyway, even if serb officials are missing, the life goes on without them too. Serbs have this idea in their mind that without serbs life does not go on, but in fact life goes on without serbs too so I would suggest to serbs to get with the crowd and to stop thinking that they are the most important people in the world because they are not.

1. they chose the so-called Kosovo; it is called Kosovo.
2. the Croatian president has made his decision. He chose Kosovo officials, not Serbian officials,” Jeremić told Radio Television Serbia; how can you in your right mind condition your invitation its either you go or you don't, no country will obide to this condition, especially one like Croatia who people were murdered due to Serb nationalism of the SO-called greater Serbia.

Let me get this straight -- if any Serbian government representatives attends a meeting where Kosovo's representatives are treated with all state honors then that means you recognize Kosovo's independence?
If that's so, then I believe you've already recognized Kosovo as independent. FYI, on February 4, 2010, your interior minister Ivica Dacic attended the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington, D.C., and guess what...so did the Kosovo's foreign minister.

Serbia should shut down all embassies in countries where Kosovo has embassies.

That is if you like to stick to your guns as some here profess. Unless, hypocrisy is the norm.

Soon Serbians politicians will be all dressed up but no where to go. Russians will soon get tired and tell the Serbs to play with the other boys in their neighbourhood. Serbia will say they are mean and in the end seek friendship with North Korea because they have big fire crackers. But they will fined their new friend crazy then as last resort they will turn to their Srpska entity. Sad maybe they can get help from the famous physiologist/guru/war criminal Radovan Karadžić to go grow up healthy and balanced but he will be booked up at least until 2040.

Well who cares about Serbia and serbian represeantitives. They will be the only one losing on this. The world goes on an serbs stay in the past without having good neighbourly relations with it's closest neighbours. Serbia is not as important as serbs seem to think and Croatia and Kosovo do not care so much about Serbia or what serbs think. If Serbia wants peace and prosperity then Serbia should start at least having good neighbourly relations with it's closest neighbours wich lives in peace side by side.


Kosovo will never be Serbian even if Russia would be the strongest country on the planet. There will allways be 2 million albanians in Kosovo fighting against Serbia and albanians will never negotiate with Serbia about our country.


One question for the serbs in this site. What will Serbia do if albanians will never negotiate with Serbia about the so called status of Kosovo ?

(Zoran, 18 February 2010 15:04)

Zoran that bluff no one buys.

You are not scaring no one with those bluffs.

Your pathetic show of withdrawing ambassadors for 6 months and then behave like nothing happened speaks volumes about the coherence and moral of your political elite.

Just for comparison: the communist Albania in 40 years (not 6 months) the only countru of the west with which had very limited diplomatic relations was France. And all this for ideological reasons.

I was excepting that you for “your” “holy land” would have resist at least 1 year (why not a decade??) in keeping frozen dipl. relations with the west. But when it is about the money you Serbs are very able in defending the interests of your holy land: Serbia. You make the U turn in a second (mostly 6 months).

So you see your bluffs are just pathetic- no one buys them.

Serbia DOES NOT boycott the IMPORTANT meeting were also KOSOVA is PARTECIPATING: Obama's dinner; Brussels meeting on EU perspective of SEE.

Serbian Govt is just staging these pathetic shows concerning the minor for her interest, gatherings.

This is pathetic and this circus.

This unprofessional, incoherent, immoral and insulting behaviour of your Govt should be exposed for your own good.

You cannot insult Italy and Croatia: since you invite Kosova I leave...

while when it is Washington and Brussels you remain as good boys silent in a corner.

That's insulting for Serbia in first place and secondly for the countries of primary and secondary importance, where you think that you can stage your pathetic show and where you have to be good boy: as you your Govt divides them.

“The Croatian president has made his decision. He chose Kosovo officials, not Serbian officials,” Jeremić told Radio Television Serbia.
--
This was always expected and I suspect Josipović was secretly wishing the K-Albanians would stay away. Croatia will need to decide who is more important - Belgrade or Priština. It's not a difficult choice really so I suspect Josipović will make it up by visiting Belgrade very soon while snubbing Priština.

Lets hope Josipović ends up working towards peace and prosperity within the region.

So the choice for the West is quite simple... is Serbia or "Kosova" more important? Not a difficult one really. I like the way this is playing out. :)
(Zoran, 18 February 2010 15:04)


You got big hopes Zoran. Maybee one day heaven falls down also. But one thing I am wondering about is why would West ''choose'' Serbia over Kosovo when Serbia allways stay on the side of Russia ? Russia as we all know is an opponent to the West and US.

But we all know who is more important, Kosovo or Serbia. I don't see Medvedev or Obama visiting Belgrade. George Bush and Bill Clionton is two american president wich have visited albanian land. Croatian president choosed President of Kosovo Fatmir Sejdiu before the serbian one Boris Tadic. So go ahead Serbia wave your self to the east we don't need you in the West or EU.

Nobody cares about Serbia and Serbia is not important to the West or the Balkan region.



Kosovo is independent accept it or not. We don't care at all about Serbian recognition as long as we got US and Albania by our side.


Peace and prosperity to all!!

That's excellent. Stick to your guns and please this time don't go back on your word.
The silliness of Montenegrin Ambassador being expelled only to be replaced with another one soon after achieved nothing.
Mean what you say this time and don't surrender your integrity.

If Croatia wants good relations with Serbia then Croatia must extend a hand of friendship. Throwing Sejdiu in Tadic's face is not the way to extend that hand of friendship.

"so-called Kosovo" said Jeremic

how to rename the Kosovo loud jeremic now? Jeremicstan ?

Serbs attended the national prayer breakfast in Washington some days ago, knowing there was a Kosovo delegations there.
You rather find oranges on the moon than logic in your FM's statements.

Its important to stand up for what you believe in and Belgrades decision not to attend is the right one. Are other countries suppose to dictate to what goes and what doesn't? Belgrades objections to Kosovo UDI will cause Europe more problems then they ever thought.

Gjergj, there would be no chance of an invitation to a K Albanian politico to a Serbian president's inauguration. But enjoy your head games - just like imagining an independent Albo Kosovo.

So the choice for the West is quite simple... is Serbia or "Kosova" more important? Not a difficult one really. I like the way this is playing out. :)
(Zoran"
I think that the 65 countries recognizing Kosovo disregarding Serbia's strong wishes has given you an answer to which is more important.
Serbia does not go to Croatia function but sending all kinds of representatives to the US and cooperation with NATO shows real backbone.

Jermic's bad move on this one. Is he startng to show frustration or they will change position on this one as well. Remember they called all ambassadors back from countries who recgonized Kosovo, promising tu cut all diplomatic ties, that was reversed. Honestly it is better for them to just show some maturity and not play childish game "if he comes I'm not coming".

"So the choice for the West is quite simple... is Serbia or "Kosova" more important? Not a difficult one really. I like the way this is playing out. :)"
(Zoran, 18 February 2010 15:04)

I got news for you - Serbia got bombed by the West because of Kosovo. Not difficult to understand indeed.

Glad to see our govt standing up for our interests bc if CRO wants to be part of an EU dominated by Russian energy interests, they'd better learn to respect Serbia.

Probably in the near future there will be plenty of occasions like this one where Kosovo leaders will be invited and expecially in EU where Serbia is so eager to be invited...

That's the thing. The West then excludes Serbia from participation in their conferences thus pushing Serbia out. Serbia then finds more acceptance in the East and feels more welcome there.

Serbia is excluding itself, playing rough and tough with Montenegro and Croatia, and on the other side kiss and hugging with the rest of the West that knows the truth about Kosovo ;)

But if you are being pushed East, that's a job well done. I wish you and all the likes of you very very good luck, Kosovo was and will be in Europe.

Serbian official should start getting used to this or they will became laughing stock. No country will organise separate meeting only for Serbian delegation.

Good riddance. Or perhaps you will wait until USA is bankrupt and China takes its place.

It never ceases to amazing the depths of serb bashing they are willing to go. Like it or not we are both here to stay, we have to find a way to work together for a commmon future. Fracturing the balkans further by creating yet another state is counterproductive to everyone who lives there, We have all weakend ourselves to such a degree that we are all vassals to the west when as Yugoslavia we were so much stronger together. We let internal and external forces drive us apart when we all have a common future. It saddens me.

RE: Croatia had no choice

Given that most of Europe has illegally recognized the quasi-state of Kosovo; Josipovic was essentially forced to invite Fatmir Seidu to the event.

Croatia knows too well that its economic prosperity in large part needs a strong economic relationship with Serbia and that holds true for Serbia as well. Slovenia has seized on trading opportutnies with Serbia, Croatia has not.

The US policy towards Serbia is to agree to disagree over Kosovo, Croatia needs to adopt the same stance while at the same time not aggravating the situation particularly with derogatory statements from outgoing President Stipe Mesic.

The first step is to remove the ridiculous "genocide lawsuits" over a civil war between the Yugoslav nations.

As for Kosovo and its fake institutions; negotiation not antogonization with Serbia is the only solution.

Cantonization, Confederation, Autonomy, whatever the solution, one must be found for the good of all citizens in Kosovo to move forward.


Not the irredentist KLA terrorist policies of Thaci and Co.

Zoki

is not for me to say, but I think that Serbia going east is very unlikely.
Anyhow, not attending the inaguration of Croation president is something not that important. relations between Croatia and Serbia have worsened since the genocide suit.

I got news for you - Serbia got bombed by the West because of Kosovo. Not difficult to understand indeed.
(Desert Fish, 18 February 2010 19:10)
-------------------
You're right about Serbia being bombed because of Kosovo but it has nothing to do with you guys.
You just happened to be there wanting to help them take Kosovo. Know one thing, they took Kosovo for themselves NOT for you.

Serbs are right in this matter. I wouldn't go to this ceremony either. Serbia's struggle to preserve it's territorial integrity, against some of the world's largest powers, is not over, and winnable. It is actually an insult to Serbia to extend an invitation to anything, knowing that a K albanian representative will be present.

Albanians here are funny - they are like little children stomping their feet, shouting "We are a nation, we are a nation". Well, you are not a nation. You have no seat at the UN, you can vote on no world affairs, zero. Just because you say you are a nation, and the US forces its puppets to agree, does not make you a nation. I fully agree with Serbia - it is an insult to have Sejdieu present at the Croat inauguration, while a Serbian official is there - even if the Croats are doing it to play nice with the West.

Two nobodys from washington attended this event. What a stupid decision by the croats! Do they think Kosovo is a better trading partner for them than Serbia? HAHAHA
They are a little people and always were throughout their history. Didn't they once ask a hungarian king to rule over them?

It is very funny to see so many k-albanians who are convinced to live in a place they consider a nation, simply because it is not...
Evidently they did not notice that the (real) nations which recognized kosovo (which continue today to be a Serbian province) are a minority.
So "dear" k-albanians, try to stop dreaming about EU or UN invitation to your SO CALLED officials, because to be invited you need to be a nation, and you are not. More over, to be invited you need to be a respectable nations but... What kosovo got to respect at the moment? NOTHING! You'll be more respectable under Serbian administration.

According to the amount of KA posters on the subject it is very painful to them.
(passing by, 18 February 2010 22:17)

I'm not sure the KA are in pain because serbia will not partipate in the ceremony. Serbs should be worried about their hara-kiri, alias self-isolation. Croatia is an independent country and they decide on their own who to invite. Apparently, they didn't get bullied by serbs. This is not a surprise, because we know that Tadic would not attend. He had made this public already. At the end, we could say this is another win for kosovo, like it or not

Plan B for Kosova is a union with Albania, US and Germany have already floated this in passing and as a veiled threat to Serbia and Russia.

Other than protesting, Serbia can do nothing. For Albanians it's better to have a state with 6 million than two small ones.

Croatia must realise that recognising Kosovo undermines Serbia's soverignty. As a result I believe relations between the two countries must be kept to an absolute minimum namely ensuring peace and stability in the region and Serbia's economic interests.

That is one of the most stupid comment I have read from a senior Serbia official. Serbia is trying to put the blame of his own problem to Croatia/other countries. Serbia has no right whatsoever to tell an independent country "With me or against me".

Can I go please instead?

Haha. I noticed that too. This just shows that his stance is pure theatre with no substance. He started by denying the independence of Kosovo and he's ending by denying its very existence.
Anything is possible in Narnia.

This is hilarious! You K-labs are so concerned with Serbia attending and where Serbia is going it really is a sign that you know the great ‘behemoth’ that Serbia is – is not finished. Why are you so concerned about whether YOUR country Serbia is going to send its diplomats to Croatia? Do try to understand that if anyone needs anything - Croatia needs Serbia more than Serbia needs Croatia. The Serbs’ have never been ones for the beach anyway haaha. And do you really think the Croat political elite likes the K-labs – you’ve got to be joking right???? Its all due to geo-politics which are rapidly changing my southern citizens.

I want to make sure that I'm not somehow supporting or recognizing Kosovo. I'm not sure on a few things and maybe some people in this forum can help me.

I already know that if you, even accidentally, say 'hello' to an Albanian, this means you recognize Kosovo.

I'm just confused what happens if you've been in a room that an Albanian has also been it, if it means you recognize Kosovo.

Any tips on accidentally recognizing Kosovo would be very helpful, thanks.

Serbia got bombed by NATO alright because they wanted build a base in that region. It was never because of the Albanians or to show their human rights credentials. In fact, they killed 10,000 Albanians in the process.

Cheers

They are insignificant and powerless and pushed and used by their masters anyway.
What we Serbs need to do to find a business like approach to the West until they leave our southern Serbian province and stregthen our ties with our allies Russia and China even further.
We should do everything to strengthen the Serbian nation economically,politically and militarily.
We don`t need good relations with our enemies.

If you haven't heard yet Kosova have found it's solution.It is INDEPENDENT,and if you really wish "good of all citizens in Kosovo to move forward" as you say,the best you and everybody can do is just to live them alone.They have choosen ther way!
God bles you all!

In this case then Kosovo will represent you Mr Jerermic.

Here we have another childish act of serb leaders who are getting more and more isolated. There is nothing wrong with attending a meeting where a kosovo official is. This is a complete joke from serbian officials.
But anyway, even if serb officials are missing, the life goes on without them too. Serbs have this idea in their mind that without serbs life does not go on, but in fact life goes on without serbs too so I would suggest to serbs to get with the crowd and to stop thinking that they are the most important people in the world because they are not.

Jermic's bad move on this one. Is he startng to show frustration or they will change position on this one as well. Remember they called all ambassadors back from countries who recgonized Kosovo, promising tu cut all diplomatic ties, that was reversed. Honestly it is better for them to just show some maturity and not play childish game "if he comes I'm not coming".

It never ceases to amazing the depths of serb bashing they are willing to go. Like it or not we are both here to stay, we have to find a way to work together for a commmon future. Fracturing the balkans further by creating yet another state is counterproductive to everyone who lives there, We have all weakend ourselves to such a degree that we are all vassals to the west when as Yugoslavia we were so much stronger together. We let internal and external forces drive us apart when we all have a common future. It saddens me.

Zoran that bluff no one buys.

You are not scaring no one with those bluffs.

Your pathetic show of withdrawing ambassadors for 6 months and then behave like nothing happened speaks volumes about the coherence and moral of your political elite.

Just for comparison: the communist Albania in 40 years (not 6 months) the only countru of the west with which had very limited diplomatic relations was France. And all this for ideological reasons.

I was excepting that you for “your” “holy land” would have resist at least 1 year (why not a decade??) in keeping frozen dipl. relations with the west. But when it is about the money you Serbs are very able in defending the interests of your holy land: Serbia. You make the U turn in a second (mostly 6 months).

So you see your bluffs are just pathetic- no one buys them.

Serbia DOES NOT boycott the IMPORTANT meeting were also KOSOVA is PARTECIPATING: Obama's dinner; Brussels meeting on EU perspective of SEE.

Serbian Govt is just staging these pathetic shows concerning the minor for her interest, gatherings.

This is pathetic and this circus.

This unprofessional, incoherent, immoral and insulting behaviour of your Govt should be exposed for your own good.

You cannot insult Italy and Croatia: since you invite Kosova I leave...

while when it is Washington and Brussels you remain as good boys silent in a corner.

That's insulting for Serbia in first place and secondly for the countries of primary and secondary importance, where you think that you can stage your pathetic show and where you have to be good boy: as you your Govt divides them.

That is one of the most stupid comment I have read from a senior Serbia official. Serbia is trying to put the blame of his own problem to Croatia/other countries. Serbia has no right whatsoever to tell an independent country "With me or against me".

Olf, this only pushes Serbia further East where we don't have such issues. The balance will be restored soon enough.
(Zoran, 18 February 2010 14:27)

Good riddance. Or perhaps you will wait until USA is bankrupt and China takes its place.

1. they chose the so-called Kosovo; it is called Kosovo.
2. the Croatian president has made his decision. He chose Kosovo officials, not Serbian officials,” Jeremić told Radio Television Serbia; how can you in your right mind condition your invitation its either you go or you don't, no country will obide to this condition, especially one like Croatia who people were murdered due to Serb nationalism of the SO-called greater Serbia.

"That's the thing. The West then excludes Serbia from participation in their conferences thus pushing Serbia out. Serbia then finds more acceptance in the East and feels more welcome there.

So the choice for the West is quite simple... is Serbia or "Kosova" more important? Not a difficult one really. I like the way this is playing out. :)
(Zoran"


Serbia is excluding itself, playing rough and tough with Montenegro and Croatia, and on the other side kiss and hugging with the rest of the West that knows the truth about Kosovo ;)

But if you are being pushed East, that's a job well done. I wish you and all the likes of you very very good luck, Kosovo was and will be in Europe.

This is hilarious! You K-labs are so concerned with Serbia attending and where Serbia is going it really is a sign that you know the great ‘behemoth’ that Serbia is – is not finished. Why are you so concerned about whether YOUR country Serbia is going to send its diplomats to Croatia? Do try to understand that if anyone needs anything - Croatia needs Serbia more than Serbia needs Croatia. The Serbs’ have never been ones for the beach anyway haaha. And do you really think the Croat political elite likes the K-labs – you’ve got to be joking right???? Its all due to geo-politics which are rapidly changing my southern citizens.

Serbia should shut down all embassies in countries where Kosovo has embassies.

That is if you like to stick to your guns as some here profess. Unless, hypocrisy is the norm.

Let me get this straight -- if any Serbian government representatives attends a meeting where Kosovo's representatives are treated with all state honors then that means you recognize Kosovo's independence?
If that's so, then I believe you've already recognized Kosovo as independent. FYI, on February 4, 2010, your interior minister Ivica Dacic attended the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington, D.C., and guess what...so did the Kosovo's foreign minister.

I got news for you - Serbia got bombed by the West because of Kosovo. Not difficult to understand indeed.

"so-called Kosovo" said Jeremic

how to rename the Kosovo loud jeremic now? Jeremicstan ?

I think that the 65 countries recognizing Kosovo disregarding Serbia's strong wishes has given you an answer to which is more important.
Serbia does not go to Croatia function but sending all kinds of representatives to the US and cooperation with NATO shows real backbone.

You're right about Serbia being bombed because of Kosovo but it has nothing to do with you guys.
You just happened to be there wanting to help them take Kosovo. Know one thing, they took Kosovo for themselves NOT for you.

According to the amount of KA posters on the subject it is very painful to them.
(passing by, 18 February 2010 22:17)

I'm not sure the KA are in pain because serbia will not partipate in the ceremony. Serbs should be worried about their hara-kiri, alias self-isolation. Croatia is an independent country and they decide on their own who to invite. Apparently, they didn't get bullied by serbs. This is not a surprise, because we know that Tadic would not attend. He had made this public already. At the end, we could say this is another win for kosovo, like it or not

Zoki

is not for me to say, but I think that Serbia going east is very unlikely.
Anyhow, not attending the inaguration of Croation president is something not that important. relations between Croatia and Serbia have worsened since the genocide suit.

Plan B for Kosova is a union with Albania, US and Germany have already floated this in passing and as a veiled threat to Serbia and Russia.

Other than protesting, Serbia can do nothing. For Albanians it's better to have a state with 6 million than two small ones.

"so-called Kosovo" said Jeremic ??
--
Kosovo part time- ALBANIA full time

Cantonization,Confederation,Autonomy,whatever the solution,one must be found for the good of all citizens in Kosovo to move forward.

Not the irredentist KLA terrosist policies of Thaqi and CO.
(Jugoslavija,18 February 2010,20;19)

If you haven't heard yet Kosova have found it's solution.It is INDEPENDENT,and if you really wish "good of all citizens in Kosovo to move forward" as you say,the best you and everybody can do is just to live them alone.They have choosen ther way!
God bles you all!

Who cares about Croats or Albanians?
They are insignificant and powerless and pushed and used by their masters anyway.
What we Serbs need to do to find a business like approach to the West until they leave our southern Serbian province and stregthen our ties with our allies Russia and China even further.
We should do everything to strengthen the Serbian nation economically,politically and militarily.
We don`t need good relations with our enemies.

(Luis, 18 February 2010 16:21)

Haha. I noticed that too. This just shows that his stance is pure theatre with no substance. He started by denying the independence of Kosovo and he's ending by denying its very existence.
Anything is possible in Narnia.

(Desert Fish, 18 February 2010 19:10)

Serbia got bombed by NATO alright because they wanted build a base in that region. It was never because of the Albanians or to show their human rights credentials. In fact, they killed 10,000 Albanians in the process.

Cheers


Soon Serbians politicians will be all dressed up but no where to go. Russians will soon get tired and tell the Serbs to play with the other boys in their neighbourhood. Serbia will say they are mean and in the end seek friendship with North Korea because they have big fire crackers. But they will fined their new friend crazy then as last resort they will turn to their Srpska entity. Sad maybe they can get help from the famous physiologist/guru/war criminal Radovan Karadžić to go grow up healthy and balanced but he will be booked up at least until 2040.

Your posting are getting very strange.

According to the amount of KA posters on the subject it is very painful to them.

In this case then Kosovo will represent you Mr Jerermic.

on February 4, 2010, your interior minister Ivica Dacic attended the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington, D.C., and guess what...so did the Kosovo's foreign minister.
(Artan, 18 February 2010 15:47)



Artan, I know this one too and Serbs used Kosova's invitation by Croatia as an excuse not to go there. I don't think that Serb leadership is welcomed to Zagreb anyway.

You're right about Serbia being bombed because of Kosovo but it has nothing to do with you guys.
You just happened to be there wanting to help them take Kosovo. Know one thing, they took Kosovo for themselves NOT for you.
(Peggy, 18 February 2010 21:10)

Hey, as long as they bombed you we really don't care about the reason, even if it means us staying a NATO colony for a thousand years.

Can I go please instead?
